\u003cp\u003eAn understanding of the mineral nutrition of plants is of fundamental importance in both basic and applied plant sciences. The fourth edition of this book retains the aim of the first in presenting the principles of mineral nutrition in the light of current advances.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003cp\u003eMarschner's Mineral Nutrition of Plants, 4th Edition\u003c/i\u003e, is divided into two parts: Nutritional Physiology and PlantâSoil Relationships. In Part I, emphasis is put on uptake and transport of nutrients in plants, rootâshoot interactions, role of mineral nutrition in yield formation, stress physiology, water relations, functions of mineral nutrients and contribution of plant nutrition to food nutritional quality, disease tolerance, and global nutritional security of human populations. In view of the increasing interest in plantâsoil interactions. Part II focuses on the effects of external and internal factors on root growth, rhizosphere chemistry and biology, soil-borne ion toxicities, and nutrient cycling.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNow with color figures throughout, this book\u003ci\u003e \u003c/i\u003econtinues to be a valuable reference for plant and soil scientists and undergraduate and graduate students in the fields of plant nutrition, nutritional physiology, and soil fertility.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eOffers new content on the relationship between climate change, soil fertility and crop nutrition\u003c/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eKeeps overall structure of previous editions\u003c/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes updates in every chapter on new developments, ideas and challenges\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e
